At nine o'clock sharp.
There were only three departments left around the plane: Homeland Security, Port Authority, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Sheriff Ross led Lu Li and others to stand behind a middle-aged white man. It was obvious that their sponsor had arrived and asked them to perform their duties.
This was definitely an unexpected surprise for Lu Li. It meant that he no longer had to deliberately make friends with the two doctors. He only had to fight for and defend his own rights.
At the same time, a man in combat uniform stared at the computer screen and said: "Sir, the temperature on the surface of the aircraft is too low, and the infrared life detector fails."
A black man in a suit frowned and responded: "Try using an audio life detector instead. Also, are the experts here?"
"Well, operating instruments on the other side of the plane."
If whoever has more subordinates can control the situation, then no one can compare with this guy because he is the director of Homeland Security.
"Man, you're overstepping your authority."
Daniel is also a director-level official and is responsible for all matters of the Port Authority.
When he saw that the Department of Homeland Security was conducting investigations as if no one was around, he reminded with a cold face: "According to the provisions of Congress, starting from 1971, with the Statue of Liberty as the center and a radius of 25 miles, as long as transportation issues are involved, It will all be handled by our port authority.”
There is overlapping of authority, passing the buck and arguing with each other.
At this moment, Lu Li was really fed up with these people. During the boring waiting process, he even had an irresponsible idea: Let's fight and seize power, and wait until the whole city and the whole country are completely destroyed and all people die. OK.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, suggesting that he should continue to endure.
In the last exam scene, on the last day of guarding the bridge, Wei Feng was deducted by the principal for giving up the soldiers and escaping alone.
And this example is undoubtedly a warning to everyone not to do something that is not in line with the character.
As a private policeman and a wage earner with law enforcement powers, the character Lu Li should uphold most is obedience.
After the chief issues an order, it is carried out unconditionally until the social order collapses.
It is worth mentioning that the camp chosen when entering the game, Chaotic Good, will probably not be activated until the situation becomes serious enough to be difficult to resolve.
[Do good according to your own standards, regardless of the rules, have your own standards for good and evil]
High freedom, no restrictions, and flexible play are exactly the style of conduct that Lu Li desires.
So it's worth the wait.
After some mental struggle, Lu Li decided to continue accompanying this group of people and participate in the investigation as much as possible. Of course, he was also prepared to serve as a backdrop.
However, just as the two directors of the Department of Homeland Security and the Port Authority began a new round of fighting, two beams of car lights shone on everyone's faces, and the sound of brakes sounded.
It was a black old-fashioned jeep, shaped like a box.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Li saw a man wearing a black coat and tie pushing open the car door. He was probably the person who was on the phone with Dr. Nora.
Sure enough, Fat Jim walked up to him, took out a carton of milk from his pocket, and started chatting with him in a low voice. It seemed like he was introducing the situation.
On the other side, the black supervisor of Homeland Security also received the survey results.
"Everyone, the audio life detector detected the sound of metal plates shrinking due to cold, and this..."
As he spoke, he pressed the play button on the tape recorder.
A strange sound sounded.
Lu Li felt it was a bit like breathing, but it didn't match the normal frequency. Director Daniel didn't have the patience and asked directly: "What is this?"
"Experts believe it was the noise caused by the aircraft engine being shut down, or the sound of liquid deposits."
Just as the black supervisor finished speaking, the belated CDC official interjected: "How long did it take between landing and shutting down the engine?"
"Six minutes." Fat Jim replied quickly.
Seeing this, the black supervisor looked unhappy, turned his head and looked at the CDC official, and said: "The incubation period is too short, it should not be caused by an infectious disease, so I think the CDC should not be involved in this matter."
On this issue, the Port Authority and the Homeland Security Bureau reached an agreement. Daniel pointed to Lu Li and the police car: "Our people arrived at the scene first. Therefore, according to relevant regulations, the Port Authority should take over the plane."
It is almost foreseeable that a new round of power struggle is about to begin.
Lu Li thought and looked away:
Dr. Ephraim Goodwinzer, Chief Medical Officer for the New York Region of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Senior Advisor to the Biochemical Threat Investigation Team.
That's what's on his badge.
In just a few lines, one can feel that this guy has very high qualifications and is not an expert on parallel imports.
Anatomy + Infectious Diseases.
Once the two elements were combined, Lu Li, who was temporarily looking at the problem from a God's perspective, believed that if he and other candidates did not disrupt the situation, I am afraid that Dr. Iver would be the protagonist of the show.
Doctor of Medicine VS Mysterious Virus + Unknown Creature
According to common sense, many film and television drama directors love to shoot stories with this theme, and most audiences also like to watch them.
Unfortunately, a group of candidates with different special skills infiltrated, and Lu Li didn't know where things would end up. After all, the evil camp hadn't been activated yet.
It is conceivable that once a large number of candidates choose to join the villain force, the situation will become extremely chaotic. Not only that, considering the current encounter, Lu Li couldn't guarantee that he would definitely help humanity.
"Sir, how often do you touch your face?"
Not far away, questions came, and Dr. Ivor looked at the black supervisor seriously.
Suddenly asked about this kind of thing, the supervisor was completely confused. He scratched his face and replied innocently: "Who is a serious person? About once an hour."
"It's once every three minutes!"
Dr. Iver looked around at everyone. Paul felt that he was pretending and curled his lips in disdain.
Lu Li thought it was quite interesting.
If the doctor can really convince Homeland Security to withdraw from the competition, then he can be sure that this guy really has the aura of a protagonist.
In this case, even if you can't cooperate with them, you still have to find a way to take advantage of them.
At this moment, Dr. Iver became more and more confident as he spoke, unknowingly increasing his pitch and speed: "Your hands and mouth come into contact every five minutes, and you touch other people every twenty minutes. This is what happens with certain diseases. The infection spreads.”
Looking at each other, the black supervisor hesitated a little. He listened to the doctor's lecture without saying a word.
From Lu Li's point of view, this scene looked like a good student who had committed a crime was pulled in front of the dean and accepted criticism.
Ivor didn't care about this, he said to himself: "If you don't like terrorists, then try to deal with the virus. It can only survive by finding a host and replicating, but it reproduces extremely fast. It has no faith, no thoughts, There is no distinction between good and evil, no fear of power, and the advent of airplanes has made it easier for viruses to spread.”
After the words fell, the two supervisors froze on the spot.
The doctor tore open the milk carton, took a sip calmly, and asked, "Does anyone else want to be the first to rush in?"
Just like that, the Department of Homeland Security withdrew. Until he left in the car, the black supervisor always had a question mark on his face, as if he was thinking: Who am I? Where am I from? Where am I going?
Well, Lu Li was convinced that the chief medical officer of New York City really had some kind of aura -
After becoming the black supervisor, Supervisor Daniel was about to give up, until Lu Li reminded: "Sir, as the first official agency on the scene, the police force has the obligation to cooperate with the CDC in carrying out its work, and I am not afraid of sacrifice."
In fact, most people in this country excessively worship heroes. Paul felt that he needed to stand up and echoed in a deep voice: "Same."
Daniel nodded. He thought it made sense, so he turned to look at Ivor: "Doctor, what do you think?"
"Okay, this guy comes up with us and helps move some equipment."
The medical officer pointed at Lu Li and smiled at him, acting quite friendly.
At least, that's what Lu Li thought.
